Honour your family’s heroes and help raise money for the Royal British Legion

Remembrance Day is a time to honour the heroes in your family, and pay tribute to the brave soldiers, sailors and pilots who have died in the line of duty since World War I. Now you can share your tributes to these courageous men and women with your family and friends, through our Remembrance Facebook application

We’re committed to helping everyone discover more about their military ancestors and this year we’ve partnered with the Royal British Legion to raise money in honour of our nation’s war heroes. For each tribute posted on our Remembrance wall, we’ll donate £1 to the Royal British Legion, up to our target of £10,000.

Please help us meet our target and post a message in honour of the war hero you’d like to remember this Remembrance Day.
